hahah naww, but thanks! im happy with how it looks nd cant wait to get it, i have no clue what color to make it, i kinda just wanna go white and do aluminum pannles on it for a modern clean look.

wiring up

more goodies, grabbed a savox servo since they said they forgot to order my servo. but got it 1/2 price so im happy its a SC-1268SG one hell of a servo.

running gear will probly change some.

ran it as a wraith for the last time today. found the sweet spot in the gearing i think 12t pinion woth a 60t spur is perfect speed and torque.for what i plan to do.

changed venom rims to aluminum RC4WD rims and put weights in them each wheel weighs about a good 200 grams in the front and about 100 grams in the rear, and with the pitbulls on there this thing will just pull its self up everything, enjoing running it as a wraith right now to get all the kinks worked out before the chassis gets here.

snapped a front cv but they were crappy Fumi ones need to order a set of vanquish vvd's and a rear axle for this truck, just waiting till i actually get the chassis now im happy with where it will start at.

[colbys rc shop]

who built the chassis nice work

[gunder463]

warriorsimi i believe and Fastfred is doing some customization on it to make it take an interrior and run off a wraith skid/ drivetrain

So i need some help on the interior, i want it to look scale but i dont want to use the same old wraith interior or anything like that, is there any companys that make diffrent scale seats than wraith seats, ive been looking at the stuff from rc4wd and they dont really have anything what dose everyone else use?

[tuner]

Dinky rc has a universal interior and some sick seats. or I would recommend using styrene for a custom interior.,

[gunder463]

okay thanks for the tips ill check it out,

[gunder463]

more junk wanted softer foams so i went out and found some memory foams some OLD trinity foams and some panther memory foams, RRP heavyduty wraith trans locker, and new servo mounts since i have a broken off screw in mine,

[gunder463]

got away from the gmade shocks and went with some losi 102mm shocks that my local hobby shop had in stock and tey are actually pretty nice i went with some soft integy springs they had and i actually like the rate and feel a little more than the gmades, and there equally as smooth,

[gunder463]

Well Apparently i got on it too hard while on 4s and yeah bye bye idler gear time for a steel one.

[tuner]

I blew a few of those on 3s with 2 pole motors so a 4s 4 pole will probably last less than ten seconds.

[gunder463]

yeah i put one in i had laying around and it lasted the abuse today but it wont last another run haha i can hear it clicking in one spot so thats the start of the end, i have one more stock gear to destroy then ill go buy a RRP one

[gunder463]

went to the cvds from axial and broke my diff haha, guess its time to go to my hardened overdrive gear sets,

My radiator came in lol. It's SWEETTTT . Will post some pics soon on my gamechanger thread , keep an eye out and if you want a radiator, it's deff worth looking into TSS alum ones.

[gunder463]

So im actually water proofing my rx8 right now with white plasti-dip good or bad idea on that? i did it to my other esc's and there okay but this is a bit more sophisticated, hope it dosent harm it.

[gunder463]

look what found its way to me,

[gunder463]

Well got a bunch of stuff from Super Shafty today and built my bulletproof trans, im going to use my junfac axles still they hold up to the power fine it seems, also got the new scale knuckles/C's from vanquish, and a badly needed bearring kit, i figured since im spending the coin id get the ceramic bearings and they were worth the money, reallly really smooth and zero slop like some cheaper ones. one thing i would deffinetly suggjest from supershafty is there beefy upper shaft its nice,

[gunder463]

peektures.

all the other junk besides the chassis! one thing i did not picture is my waterproof receiver,
